WSN Operating Systems for Internet of Things(IoT): A Survey

The Internet of Things is a concept which allows communication of all surrounding things around human's living space no matter it is living thing, a computer, a wooden piece or anything else. IoT started in early 2 decades as a concept. IoT covers almost all aspects of human life as it covers industry, business, medical, agriculture, infrastructure, communication, household and many other aspects of human life. Basic concept behind IoT is to automate and communicate objects and things without human provided input. Objects communicate with each other via wireless communication devices like RFID. Information could be collected from information by using sensors and actuators. As communication between devices increases, need of an Operating System which communicates with heterogeneous devices also increases. In this paper, recent Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) Operating Systems for IoT are discussed and also a generic framework is designed which represents the features of an IoT oriented operating systems.
